Join Jumaadi and his Shadow Factory collaborators for a free 2-hour workshop that explores drawing, paper cutting, storyboarding and shadow puppetry as a form of storytelling.

Participants will create a series of paper cut-outs to build their own stories, which will then be staged as a performance at the end of the day, building on Jumaadi’s incredible two-dimensional puppet artworks and the Indonesian tradition of shadow-puppet theatre.

Please register onsite 15 minutes before the session, maximum 25 participants per session.

Open to children 8+, children under 10 must be supervised by a guardian.

  • Morning session, 10.30am – 12.30pm

  • Afternoon session, 1.30–3.30pm
